This coming weekend on Saturday all servers will be down for an undetermined amount of time. I am migrating everything away from the current VPS in NYC to a full dedi located in Chicago.
GK pricing will remain the same for now, possibly lowered once I balance the load out a bit and see what GK will be needing resource wise.

Pings will obviously change for people. I have found though the Chicago location to be much more stable and reliable of a connection. I actually have a ping of about 20-30ms to Chicago and 40-50ms to NYC. I live in upstate NY, so work out that logic. Pings for EU players will increase by an estimated 10-30ms. Not as big of a concern now that most EU players are playing on EU servers these days. Pings will lower for our West coast players also.

All in all, there really are no cons to doing this move.

*UPDATE* - All server have been migrated to the new box this morning Sunday 8AM. TS3 IP info needs to be updated on the portal page to show the TS3 stats

As you may have noticed in recent weeks, we have a new tab in the navigation bar named : "Online Players". This has been a request from GK for quite a while now but we didn't have code required to make it happen. However, thanks to Corpse Striker & Rubbing we were able to realize this dream and the page is now live!

What is it you may ask? It shows a live feed of the *US_GK_TDM* server, with Kills, Deaths and K/D. We plan on adding the siege server next, I just need to make room for it but that should be coming shortly.

Now, this is only phase 1 of this massive project. In the future we'd like to save stats and create a sort of leader board, see players most used weapon, their head shot count, etc. ill also be working on the aesthetic side of the page as we move forward.

*UPDATE*
Slow going. Complete OS failure, have to recover from linux partition with a "guide" that is inaccurate... Slow going to say the least. Currently backing up all files to remote server to begin restore

*UPDATE 9:25PM*
Restoring data onto fresh OS now.

**UPDATE 10:35PM**

Servers coming back on - TS3, Siege and TDM.

Need to confer with Sparhawk to check the other minor servers that need to be put back on

Alright everyone. We have been starting up on PW again now that there is a decent server being run. Alot of us have been playing it lately but I think it is time for an official GK presence to be shown.

If you want to go in and do crafting, serfing, etc that is fine. But our main focus will be the fighting aspect of the mod. We will hopefully engage in several good sized wars and bring back tons of loot!

Throughout the day, I will be serfing and crafting our castle to prepare it for this event. I will also be able to supply gold to any newcomers to the mod as well.

You are free to choose whatever class or gear you want. The only thing I ask is to follow orders. If we say all rally to this castle, I expect to see everyone at that castle and not fighting eachother somewhere else!

Normal rules apply for this event, follow the code of conduct, no teamkilling, etc.

Note: This is not a GK server so their rules on racism, etc are very non-existant. Please do not encourage or participate in any such things, nor should you call them out on it. Just ignore it
